No. 7 Salisbury Takes Two from St. Mary's

Box Score (Game 1)

Box Score (Game 2)

Salisbury, Md. - Salisbury University picked up their first wins of the season Saturday afternoon as the No. 7 Sea Gulls posted wins of 4-0 and 4-3 over visiting St. Mary's College of Maryland, who was stepping onto a diamond for the first time this season.  St. Mary's will wrap up its series at Salisbury Sunday with a single game at 12:00 pm.

Back-to-back blizzards have kept the Seahawk baseball squad gym-bound since about the end of January and that was evident in the first game as SU's junior LHP Dustin Herbert (Huntingtown, Md./Huntingtown) threw a no-hitter in leading Salisbury (2-1, 2-0 CAC) to a 4-0 shutout.  Herbert fanned seven Seahawk batters while giving up just two walks to seniors Lyle Kralle (Great Mills, Md./Great Mills) and Donald Redmiles (Davidsonville, Md./DeMatha).

The Sea Gulls notched all four runs in the fifth as senior Mike Celenza (Gaithersburg, Md./Quince Orchard) connected on a two-run single to score junior Andrew Miller (Schwenksville, Pa./Perkiomen Valley) and senior Trevor Cobb (Hagerstown, Md./Saint Maria Goretti).  Earlier in the inning, Miller singled to drive in senior Tim Kellinger (Knoxville, Md./Saint Maria Goretti).  Senior Ryan Smith (Waldorf, Md./Westlake) closed out the inning with an RBI double.

Sophomore RHP Mike Victory (Westford, Mass./Westford Academy) suffered the loss in the first game, allowing four runs on six hits with a career-best three strikeouts and three walks in 4.1 innings of work.

After sophomore Bill Morton (Newark, Del./Newark) gave Salisbury a 1-0 lead early in third inning with his RBI single through the right side, the Sea Gulls stretched out their advantage to 3-0 as Celenza scored on wild pitch and Smith scored on a passed ball.

St. Mary's (0-2, 0-2) closed the gap to 3-1 in the fourth inning as Kralle scored on the sacrifice fly to right field by senior Jon Gill (Owings Mills, Md./Park).

Junior Devon Quaglietta (Monroe Twp., N.J./Notre Dame) connected on the would-be game-winning hit in the fifth as Quaglietta knocked one out of the park to give the Sea Gulls a two-run cushion.

The Seahawks came within one in the sixth as red-shirt first-year John Stewart (Annapolis, Md./St. Mary's, Annapolis) got his with a  two-run shot that scored junior Bobby Corton (Owings Mills, Md./Calvert Hall) who had lead-off with a single.

That would be all the scoring for St. Mary's as junior RHP Mark Peterson (Reisterstown, Md./Franklin) retired the next five Seahawk batters in a row before giving up a single to junior Matt Baden (Sunderland, Md./Huntingtown).  Peterson closed out the game with a strikeout, picking up the save with three strikeouts in 2.0 innings of work.  First-year Andrew Levy (Hampstead, Md./North Carroll) notched the win with one run on three hits and four strikeouts (two walks) in 4.0 innings pitched.

Junior RHP Mikel Iraola (Kensington, Md./DeMatha) took the loss, giving up three runs on four hits in 3.0 innings of work with three strikeouts and three walks.
